i've had this problem since i bought the car (used) but finally annoyed enough to try and figure out what the problem is. When filling up i have to fill it really slowly or the pump will shut off and its impossible to just set the pump to on and let it hang, you have to hold it and manually fill..very slow. And, since i live in oregon they won't let us pump our own gas so every time i go to fill it up i have to do the same old song and dance to get them to let me pump it. Has anyone heard of this? its an 04, my 00 never had this problem
Did I read this correctly, Oregon will not let you pump your own gas?

African-Americans were not the primary target of Oregon’s Klan, in part because African-Americans were officially banned from the state by Oregon’s Constitution — the only such law in the country.
In fact, by 1927 the tide had turned so strongly against the Klan that the clause banning African-Americans from the state was finally stricken from the Oregon Constitution.

Going forward the best way to prevent it is to stop filling the tank at the first click, don't top it off after the first click. When you fill it beyond that point you risk filling the vent and charcoal canister with fuel.
My car used to have this issue and I had the bad habit of always topping off the fuel after the first click. I've stopped that practice though.
I also had an issue with a bad fitting fuel cap and I replaced the fuel filler pipe, some ap1's had issues with defective fuel filler pipes. I don't know if the defective fuel filler pipe had an effect on the fuel filling issue but both issues have gone away.

Anyone know (or have pics) where the EVAP lines' ends are, that go to the charcoal canister? Or, know where the charcoal canister is?
I'd love to hit a gas station soon, and blow some compressed air into the lines.
